A number of people have said Paul Heyman - but doesn't Heyman have some sort of backstage heat with Stephanie (which, of course, means he has it with HHH as well)? I don't seem him having any sort of extended on-screen presence. Others think Laurinaitis will get the job back, but "the...

I have a feeling the answer is, "Not as long as Linda is running for the Senate." Anybody else remember the last "one-day" DX reunion, back in 2002, which ended about two minutes after it started with HBK on the receiving end of a half-hearted Pedigree (I think Michaels was legit hurt and HHH...

What's "similar to federation" that doesn't start with F? The entire point is that the company was sued by the World Wildlife Fund for violating an agreement involving the use of the term "WWF", and are banned from calling themselves "WWF" in various parts of the world. (In fact, if you watch...

I think the result will be "other" - I keep changing it every five minutes or so, but the key stipulation is probably "pinfall or submission only," which probably means that they will manage to take the fight backstage, where Cena gets hit by some "masked stranger" (or even somebody hiding...

There had to be some sort of "audible" ending if for no other reason that they had to stretch the match out as long as possible, so they needed a "go to the finish" signal of some sort right before the end.

Only if Team Laurinitis wins (hey, can't have the faces win every match), only for the next night's Raw to start out with JL coming out to crow about it (or even try to fire, say, Lawler), only for Triple H to come out, announce he is retiring from active wrestling (assuming he loses to Taker...

I couldn't have said it better. I think WWE feels it needs to stuff "Cena is a face, dammit!" down everybody's throats now that there are no more PPVs before The Cena-Rock Show (which, as far as every non-wrestling show like Entertainment Tonight is concerned, is what WrestleMania is this...

I heard something on Raw that I thought was strange. When (I think it was) Cole was describing how the ambulance match worked ("you have to put your opponent into the ambulance and then slam the door"), Lawler then added something like, "The match is over when the ambulance leaves the arena."...

Do you get WWE Classics OnDemand? They have been running Nitro for a few years now; they appear to be alternating two weeks of a 3-hour Nitro (early 1998, I think) with two weeks of two 1-hour Nitros from when it started. They have also been running the TBS Saturday shows (they are up to the...

I have three, depending on what you mean by "heartbreaking": First, when I heard about Owen's death (I had missed the PPV and heard about it on the news the next day). A not particularly close second in this category is when they announced that Magnum TA's injuries from his car crash was...

I understand why Rey lost. What I don't understand is: (a) why Rey, and (b) why so soon? If they wanted to put the belt back on Cena so quickly, why not have Miz win the first title match? Or, why not have Del Rio cash in his MITB like they teased? At the very least, have the Rey-Cena match...

You mean like the way they treat REDACTED? There is a fourth option, that somebody else mentioned - Triple H sledgehammers the laptop, and that ends that. (Did they ever have any closure to "Who lifted the briefcase?" or "dropping the lights on Vince"?) Speaking of things never mentioned...

Didn't they mention on the show how many E-mails WWE got in response to Cena? I just wonder what percent of them asked Vince to go ahead with the firing. (I also wonder if this served a purpose other than for WWE to get a list of E-mail addresses (honestly, what mark is smart enough to use a...

With all of the talk about CM Punk "taking the belt out of WWE", there's one option that I haven't noticed anyone mention (although it wouldn't be the first time I just wasn't paying attention): The constant references to Colt Cabana, and ROH's history of financial difficulties (not to...

It seems to me there are two sides to this story - and no, I don't mean (choose between: (a) "Benoit is a murderer" / "I can't believe people are standing up to this murderer", and (b) "Benoit probably didn't have total control over himself" / "Why don't others understand this?"). On the one...
